Amazon shares slide on revenue miss, disappointing guidance for third quarter. Amazon reported weaker-than-expected revenue for the second quarter and issued a disappointing forecast for the current period. Amazon’s cloud business exceeded analyst estimates, but it’s advertising unit came up short.

Amazon Stock: A Tech Powerhouse with AI-Driven Growth

Overview:  The broader market continues to navigate through mixed economic signals. Inflation remains persistent in the U.S., and central banks are poised to keep monetary policies tight. However, key sectors such as technology, especially those with strong cloud and AI infrastructure, are showing robust growth. Amazon $Amazon.com(AMZN)$  , a tech giant with a significant presence in e-commerce, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence, is positioning itself for further expansion, particularly in the UK.

Investment Reflection: Amazon (AMZN) - August 30, 2024

Current Context My recent investment in Amazon $Amazon.com(AMZN)$   on August 30, 2024, comes at a time when the stock has been uncharacteristically underperforming. Since early July, Amazon's share price has declined by over 10% from its record high, a slump exacerbated by the broader market's historical weakness in September. Contributing to this downward pressure was Amazon's Q2 revenue miss; while sales grew 10% year-over-year to $148 billion, they fell short of analysts' expectations of $148.7 billion. This shortfall led to understandable investor concern, further driving the stock down. Long-Term Perspective Despite the near-term volatility, it's essential to zoom out and recognize Amazon's enduring s

Investment Reflection on Additional AMZN Stock Purchase (23 August 2024)

On 23 August 2024, I made an additional investment in Amazon $Amazon.com(AMZN)$  stock, and I believe this decision is supported by recent developments at the company, particularly in the realm of artificial intelligence (AI). Key Development:  Amazon's CEO, Andy Jassy, recently highlighted the remarkable impact of the company’s AI assistant. This tool has reportedly saved Amazon $260 million and the equivalent of 4,500 developer-years of work. This revelation is significant as it underscores the transformative power of AI in streamlining operations, reducing costs, and accelerating product development cycles. Strategic Significance:  This achievement is not just a cost-saving measure; it represents a

Why Amazon Looks Weak after Q2 Results

It has been a while since Amazon.com, Inc ($Amazon.com(AMZN)$) went from being an "e-commerce company with a quirky cloud computing effort" to a "cloud computing company with a costly e-commerce gig and a content business thrown in". In 2023, the company advanced on its plans to shake the status quo by: building outreach to independent third-party merchants by and their customers by offering additional services such as "Fulfillment by Amazon" (FBA) in a bid to stymie the likes of Shopify; capturing market share away from Google and Meta Platforms in the business of online advertising (after all, Amazon is a sellers' platform); continuing to make their content business the means of converting shoppers to subscribers and vice versa.

Navigating Amazon’s Earnings Turbulence: Insights and Outlook

Amazon's $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ recent earnings report has sent ripples through the market, as the retail giant reported weaker-than-expected revenue for the second quarter and provided a lacklustre forecast for the third quarter. While the cloud business performed admirably, exceeding analyst estimates, the advertising unit's underperformance has left investors questioning the company's near-term prospects. With shares sliding on the news, the key question is whether this dip represents a buying opportunity or a signal to sell. Understanding the Revenue Miss Amazon's second-quarter revenue miss was a stark reminder that even the mightiest companies can stumble. The company's total revenue for the quarter was $121.2 billion, falling short of the $123.

$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ I think valuing them based on their operating income rather than their cash flow is the wrong way to look at it.They have such high depreciation from their investments (and pretty substantial stock based comp) that it makes more sense to look at it from a cash flow perspective which smooths those numbers out.They are trading at around 16-17x operating cash flow now - which is about the cheapest it has ever been - and while valuations should condense as the company grows in size - their operating leverage should continue to increase.Keep in mind that Amazon growing revenue at 11-12% is somewhat misleading in terms of profitability affects. AWS and Advertising account for so much of the company's profitab

$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ time to.buy and take a calculated risk
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$   $AMZN Brian Oslavsky just told the media that the 19% AWS growth has strong demand. That means they basically guided up AWS cause it has strong demand. Also said that AI is already generating billions inside of AWS The stock is down for 4 years and in the last 3 quarters AWS has gone from 11% growth to 19% with reiterated strong demand going forward. The stock will catch up to this soon in my opinion If they explain the advertising decel that once they apply AI like $META does they will see major improvements there is the only weak link and I know it’s that. A few quarters ago I mentioned how well AI is doing for advertising for META and especially the last quarter. They all know this tech
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$   $AMZN  Opportunities galore!!! Amazon operating income in E-com doubled and AWS was recently at 11% growth and now 19% growth and free cash flow has doubled in the last few years as the stock is down for 4 years this is an opportunity Technically it basically hit the 200 day moving average in the after hours which is around 168-169 The whole market is sour cause of the FED and slowing economic data feels like a policy mistake But this is creating opportunities in the companies that don’t give a fuck about the FED or interest rates or what president comes and goes
